Top complaints
Awful room conditions the hallways were littered with trash and hair we were given 2 rooms to look at before deciding to go to another hotel because of how dirty the rooms were the white sheets were stained with blue pink and red stains as well as black spotted stains there was holes in the floors and there was also clothing and personal items from previous tenants left in the room that was “just cleaned” i would also like to add that there was urine and public hair cakes onto the toilet seat that had obviously never been cleaned I would avoid this hotel if you can afford to do better

Between the dirty carpet, cigarette burns in the bedspread, crud around switches, nasty brown drips on the wall, this place was so filthy that the thought of taking a shower was more disgusting than NOT taking one.

It’s past midnight and for over three hours there’s constant noise coming from the restaurant directly above our room, guests making loud noise, doors opening and closing nonstop, and what sounded like cleaning or vacuuming late into the night.
